A Weekly Space for Little Ones & Their Grown-Ups.
Thursdays, 10.30am during term time | Nayland Street Chapel, Sumner
Newbies is a relaxed, welcoming playgroup for parents, caregivers, babies, and toddlers. Held every Thursday morning during the school term, it’s a space designed to help your little one thrive through play while you enjoy a warm cuppa and connect with others in the same stage of life.
We know that parenting in the early years can be full-on, so we aim to create a calm, friendly environment where you can catch your breath, make new friends, and feel supported.
The group is play-based with age-appropriate toys and activities, and we provide a light morning tea for adults and children. Whether you’re brand new to the area or just looking for a regular rhythm with your little one, you’re warmly invited.
Koha (donation) appreciated but never required.
Just come as you are — we’d love to meet you.
Fun Connection for Pre-schoolers & Their Caregivers.
Fridays, 10am during term time | St Andrew’s Church, Redcliffs
Mainly Music is a fun, interactive music and movement session for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers — and a welcoming space for parents and caregivers to connect and build community.
Held every Friday morning during term time, Mainly Music combines songs, actions, instruments, and rhythm in a playful and engaging environment. It’s designed to help under 5s develop motor skills, confidence, and a love of music — all while having heaps of fun!
After the music session, there’s time to stay and play while enjoying a light morning tea. It’s a great opportunity to meet other local families, share stories, and support one another in the parenting journey.
Whether it’s your first visit or your fiftieth, you’re always welcome.
Koha (donation) appreciated but never required. Just come as you are — we’d love to see you there!
